I loved both my Mother & Father very much but it’s funny how when you think about them it is very easy to distinguish what separates the two from one another. For instance:
I sure have been thinking about my Mother a lot lately! One Thing in Particular seems to stand out more then others though. We had moved to Parsons, Kansas for my Dads health when I was in the sixth grade. How old are you then, around 12? Anyway, I remember being in school and really hating it. At lunchtime, I would ride my bike home for lunch. We lived pretty close to the school so I was able to get home in less then 5 minutes. Well, my Mom would have made a bacon sandwich on toast with a glass of milk and chips all ready and waiting in the TV room with the “Honeymooners” already on the TV just waiting for me to get there. My Mom would do that everyday of the week for ME!
That’s a memory from more then 40 years ago! Overwhelming isn’t it? It is still so vivid in my mind! I sure miss her!
